My relationship with Long Realty came about through a referral to my son who is a
Realtor in Denver.
Peggy Mincey became my contact and I am thrilled to say, I was blessed to be
paired with such a professional.
After lengthy discussions and communications, Peggy was able to discern what
my priorities in housing were. I did not have a specific timeline and that was not
an issue for her, she was there for me at any point that I was available.
At that time I was working in the Black Hills in South Dakota. I was able to arrange
a quick trip to Tucson over the Labor Day weekend. My son accompanied me on
this trip and Peggy had arranged for us to view muiltiple properties in the Rancho Vistoso and
Saddlebrook areas.
It was a very productive and informative couple of days for my son and I. I knew that
I was certain that I was going to relocate to the area, it was just a matter of determining when
that would be and naturally, finding the right property.
Unfortunately after finishing work that fall, I had a difficult medical experience that changed
my timeline. It wound up being a matter of months for my recovery.
From the initial weekend of showings throughout my convalescence, Peggy had my on a
a listing alert through email for properties in my price range, in the geographic areas that
I had interest in. Additionally, Peggy reached out directly to me to make sure that I was well
and to ensure that I was still interested in pursuing my desire to head to Tucson.
This summer I am employed by the National Park Service, working at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. On a whim, over the 4th of July weekend I took a road trip to Tucson, just to
explore the area further and make certain that this was truly where I wanted to live.
In my time there I drove by a few homes for sale, check out some open houses and just
snooped around. I discovered a property that I was extremely interested in and texted Peggy asking her if she had time to show it to me the following day, the 5th. She did not know that I was in town, but said absolutely and made the arrangements. After viewing the property I was certain this home was exactly what I was looking for and Peggy prepared the offer and submitted it to the listing agent.
The offer was accepted and we closed the transaction with a financing package in 18 days.
The experience and professionalism that Peggy has, has made this all possible. Her affiliation with a firm as reputable as Long Realty speaks volumes when it comes to connecting me with insurance, pest control, handy men, and other "new home" needs that people find themselves
in.
Thanks Peggy, and thank you Long Realty for an amazing experience!
